Your loss. We pay $99 for 12 months for prime and we get so much shipped for that $99 I almost feel guilty. All my toiletries, clothes, baby stuff, some tools, boat stuff, car stuff, anything and everything. Two clicks and it’s on my doorstep 36-48 hours later. Best part is no trips to Walmart and all the other useless crap you unnecessarily buy. Online movies and music etc. that $99 saves me probably $600 or more in a year. ------------- Please support The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation 1976 Ski Nautique 351 Escort 1993 Ski Nautique purple and black 351 HO PCM |

Good joke about oil reuse but true for me. In the last few years of my ownership, I would have less than 10 hrs on oil but still change it out before winter. I repurposed the slightly used oil to lawnmowers & other small engines (unfortunately it is too thick for snowblower). BTW, I bought some Mobil1 & sent in the rebate form. I thought I had wasted a stamp but 3 months later I get a $14 check. Woo hoo! ------------- “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” Ben Franklin |

Anything that runs under 5000 rpms is a truck or a tractor. Anything that cheap I would question how long its been sitting on the shelf.

Oil is overrated. I have an 07 Silverado with 6.0 bought new. 300k+. Pumped it dry of oil at 90 miles and once again around 200k. Changed oil it in 5x and filter 4x. At 220k I discovered the oil fill cap was missing so I stuck a grocery bag and rubber band on it for another 80k. I think there’s alot of oil myths out there.

Tough question Pete. All depends upon the vehicle. Several still have flat tappet cams and therefore I prefer high zinc content oils I lean more towards full synthetics in the motor home and my everyday current model drivers. I change oil at 3500 to 4000 mile intervals and always use a new filter Some say "overkill" but that is what I like to do. Clean oil is the ticket to engine like. Dirt ( and acids) wears parts out quicker than anything. I keep the airplane oil so clean that it is sometimes hard to see on the dip stick. Appreciate your comment on knowledge. ALSO bear in mind that our engines in the drag car only lasted about 5 seconds before catastrophic failure. We used 50 gallons of oil during a 3 day weekend and that was 80 or 90 weight synthetic racing oil Destroying 10 engines in that timeframe. Nitro Methane at 95% harms a lot of parts!!! Anyway thanks for the heads up on this oil deal. Duane Always fun chatting with you  ------------- Keep it as original as YOU want it 1978 Mustang (modified) |

Just to get the car to go down the track and not tear up anything except what we called "consumables" would run around $35000+ for the 3 days. That's not counting food, lodging, crews wages, air fare, expenses to get the hauler there and back , entry fees or anything else.

Pete, Pete, Pete Your memory ain't what it used to be. Check the links below There have been at least a few people on here who have had a big oil pan on their 351w, all from the early 70's in the days when PCM was a division of Waukesha. But.............just like the elusive Bigfoot nobody seems to have gotten a picture of one and posted it on CCF. Users bobcycleb, jeffware, and rmccauley all seem to have vanished, I think they were attacked and swallowed up by their giant oil pans while they were trying to get a picture.. Maybe Zwoobah can successfully get a picture of his and post it here. His engine is from about the same time period probably.. Be careful Zwoob. I think his boat is shrink wrapped till spring though and I don't think it's a Waukesha/ PCM marinization either.

Are you talking about conventional valvoline, syn blend or full synthetic Their is a big difference. Conventional oil is going by the way side even in OEM applications to be able to give better warranties. I don't even use it in my generator that calls for sae 30. it runs better and cooler on synthetic So much confusion or Man you guys should see the deal on ATF !

SYNTHETIC OIL: "Synthetic oil is a lubricant consisting of chemical compounds that are artificially made. Synthetic lubricants can be manufactured using chemically modified petroleum components rather than whole crude oil, but can also be synthesized from other raw materials. The base material, however, is still overwhelmingly crude oil that is distilled and then modified physically and chemically." Note the statement regarding "base material". It's make from dino oil!!  ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |

Here’s the kicker; No Oil Changes in most applications during the "Useful Life" of the vehicle or equipment Aside from the website looking like it was put together by a 3rd grader.... I guess when the engine fails, it’s useful life has come to an end. |

When I was a pup I had a '37 Plymouth 6cyl flat, My guess is it had a broken oil ring. 'ol joke was true, I would check the gas & fill up the oil. I bought used oil for like $3/ 5 gals. I wish I knew then what I know now so I could have rebuilt it. Was a cool car with crank-out windshield & 3 on the floor. ------------- “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” Ben Franklin |

9 cases delivered to my back porch within 5 days of ordering... average price about 15 dollars a 6 pack. Should be enough to break in a few new engines and bring a few old ones back to life. I probably ran close to that much oil through one 413 Chrysler last year chasing an intermittent water making issue - ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1477 - 1983 Ski Nautique 2001 1967 Mustang 302 "Decoy" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO5MkcBXBBs - Holeshot Video |

My 4 cases showed up with in days of ordering. Thanks to the OP for giving us a heads up on a great $$ deal. Just sitting on the shelf waiting to put in at next oil change.

| How do they sell that stuff so cheaply? Is it a lost leader? I thought 20% off retail at NAPA was a great deal last year. This deal was about 75% off. |

I have a late 80's PCM manual that recommends 10-30 or 10-40 also. If you could get it it would not hurt but IMHO we don't jump in our boats like we do our cars and take right off. They are brought up to temp before we work them hard so the 20-50 seems to work fine. Looking further through the manual though they contradict themselves having you use straight weights. This is a good example of the book being out of date, which manufacturer is going to do oil tests on their old engines -  ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1711&sort=&pagenum=1&yrstart=1966&yrend=1970" rel="nofollow - 69 Mustang HM SS 95 Nautique Super Sport |
